…an entertaining, vivid, intergenerational cast of (sometimes recurring) feisty characters, warts and all. Consistently engaging, the stories range from two to twelve pages, and span class, religion, gender, race, culture, sexuality and age – there are no taboos or polemic here. Meet addicts, bigots, plotters and schemers, thieves and hypocrites, adulterers and dreamers – ordinary people getting on with their lives, in a complex, extraordinary setting.

My name is Sara Díaz Sierra and I was wondering if your novels contained literary dialect (nonstandard spellings to suggest a pronunciation typical of Northern Ireland). The reason why I would like to know that is because I am doing a PhD at the University of Extremadura (Spain) on how the Northern Irish accent is represented in contemporary literature.
